Sunlight is a horrific thought for vampire as it kills Sims, but when nightfall arrives vampires are ready to dance the night away without any Need depletion (eating, sleeping, going to the bathroom, etc.) This article will tell you how to become, cure, and live as a Sims 2 vampire. To become a vampire, you must have the Sims 2 Nightlife expansion pack.

Once you start the game, wait until it is nighttime and get a ride down to a community lot. And look for gray colored, oddly dressed Sims with fangs. Befriend them and build a high relationship with them. Sooner or later, he or she will bite you. After a brief transformation, you are officially a vampire!

Alternatively, you could cheat. Press CTRL+SHIFT+C while in the game's neighborhood screen. Then, in the cheat box type in "boolProp testingCheatsEnabled true" without the quotations. Then select the house you want, also note the lowercase and spaces. Now, hold shift and click on your Sim. Choose "Make Vampire". Your Sim will have fangs and their skin will turn gray. Your transformation into a vampire is complete.

Remember that whenever there's sunlight around, don't even think about taking your vampire Sims outside, unless you want to pay the consequences. Keep them indoors, away from windows or other sources of light, and have them rest all day long in their dark, comfortable coffin. While they sleep, their needs will not decay (pun not intended).

Note that after the sun sets, the vampires rise and head out to enjoy the comfortable, non-dangerous, nighttime environment. Their needs will not decay, and this is a great time to go on long dates and party the night away - that is, until sunrise the next morning. Make sure you buy coffins for your newly transformed vampire they are about 1,500 Simoleons each. If you don't have enough Simoleons press CTRL+SHIFT+C and while in your family's house type in motherlode and you will got 50,000 SImoleons.

To cure it, call over the matchmaker, or if you have Apartment Life, you can summon a witch with the potion and purchase the Vamprocillin-D potion. Once he or she drinks it, they are cured instantly. This potion costs 60 Simoleons.

Tips

Your vampires have some very neat new interactions and abilities: they can bite other Sim's necks, fly as a bat, and stalk around. They also can't drown and don't have a reflection, but they still can use a mirror like any other sim.

Type ctrl+shift+c and enter "boolprop testingcheatsenabled true", shift click a sim you want to make vampire and click more about 2 times, then you can click "become vampire". after you've done this enter ctrl+shift+c again and type "boolprop testingcheatsenabled false".
